In order t o better identify counterfeit currency and other negotiable documents, the use of advanced magnetic coding is a recent innovation necessitated by the increasingly sophisticated ...

How a small molecule offers a new window into atomic-scale magnetism. (Nanowerk News) A Czech and Spanish-led research team has demonstrated the ability to distinguish subtle differences between ...

image: Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a highly sensitive emerging medical imaging technique. However, currently available scanners suffer from poor resolution and small field of view. Now, in a ...

A look beneath the surface: Research team makes hidden structural and magnetic properties visible. (Nanowerk News) Scientists use scanning tunnelling microscopy to understand how a material’s ...

With a newly developed neutron tomography technique, researchers have been able to map for the first time magnetic field lines inside materials at the BER II research reactor. Tensorial neutron ...

3D scanners rely on being able to identify physical features of an object, and line up what it saw a moment ago with what it sees now in order to build a 3D model. However, not every object is as ...

Scanning tunneling microscopes capture images of materials with atomic precision and can be used to manipulate individual molecules or atoms. Researchers have been using the instruments for many years ...

The development of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) in high magnetic fields has opened new avenues in nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy. By utilising quantum tunnelling in precisely engineered ...

Scientists use scanning tunneling microscopy to understand how a material's electronic or magnetic properties relate to its structure on the atomic scale. When using this technique, however, they can ...

The figure (left) shows the magnetic state above the surface by means of its (simplified) wave function (green wavy line), which penetrates beneath the graphene (dark grey small spheres) to the ...

BERLIN—Measuring magnetic fields inside samples has only been possible indirectly up to now. Magnetic orientations can be scanned with light, X-rays, or electrons—but only on the surfaces of materials ...
